There's a song that you can find
In every moment of your life
In every tear you've ever cried
In every painful last goodbye

So when the system breaks you down
Just listen to the sound

What do I do when it's all been done
When the words have all been sung
And I've given up the best of me
Let the music play

Chorus:
When I'm hanging by a thread
And I've got nothing to give
Let the music play
Let the music play

There's no way to explain
Why life is filled with so much pain
But do the flowers ever grow
In the places it don't rain

So when the storms just beat you down
Well, listen to the sound

What do I do when it's all been done
When the words have all been sung
And I've given up the best of me
Let the music play

Chorus (1x)

Let the music play
Horace sings a distant song
Forgotten words that I once sung
Telling me to just keep holding on
I've never been more alone than here
I turn and face my darkest fear
I just got to keep on keeping on

And when it all comes crashing down
Listen to the sound

Chorus (1x)

When I'm hanging by a thread
And I've got nothing to give
Let the music play
Let the music play

Let the music play (2x)
